With your profile you shouldn't find it too much trouble, I don't know the race or area but according to runnersworld it is undulating which course isn't a bit, if it said hilly I might think again... go for it! :eek:

Completed the 'Stafford Half Marathon' in a time of 1:46:32

This is never going to make the record books, but I am very pleased.....

Well done Dale, good time as well, it's a really good achievement, I am not yet up to that, but hopefully will get there soon.

Congratulations, you deserve to be really pleased with yourself!

I have a few more half marathons lined up, the next being Tewkesbury in May....
I do hope, to one day do a full marathon but not at present. Maybe London next year...!
